Certain things not to be forgotten!

Pilots for two U.S. commuter airlines in the past few months failed to start up the second engine on their jets before getting ready to take off

Gee, I wonder why we're accelerating so slowly? And there aren't any readings on one of the engines?

I know the airlines are looking for ways to save money, but leaving one caged just doesn't strike me as the way to do it. But, what do I know, I'm just ASEL.

i think that has been fairly standard practice in Lear's for a while. doesnt surprise me that they do it at the airlines too. jets burn a lot of gas on the ground, at least old inefficient ones.
